A lot of German universities prefer 4-year degrees, but there are still some that accept strong 3-year B.Sc programs, especially in IT or computer science.
&bull; University of Oldenburg has accepted students with 3-year tech degrees, especially for their master&rsquo;s in Computing Science &bull; TU Chemnitz accepts 3-year Indian degrees if they meet subject and credit requirements &mdash; worth checking their Computational Science or Informatics programs &bull; University of Koblenz clearly states that applicants with a relevant 3-year bachelor&rsquo;s may apply, depending on transcript evaluation &bull; University of Siegen has flexible entry for its MSc programs in IT fields, especially when supported by solid grades or internships
Check each program&rsquo;s admission tab,  some waive the 4-year rule if the degree is relevant and meets ECTS equivalence. Uni-Assist evaluations and Anabin entries can also support your case.

V Gupta · Answer

Some German public universities do accept 3-year B.Sc IT degrees, especially if the program is strong and the overall credits meet their criteria.
University of Bonn and University of Hildesheim have accepted students with a 3-year Indian bachelor&rsquo;s in IT or computer science, especially when backed by strong grades and relevant coursework.
University of Passau offers master&rsquo;s programs in computer science and information systems that clearly mention acceptance of international 3-year degrees, provided they&rsquo;re from recognized institutions.
It also helps if your B.Sc was awarded by a NAAC-accredited Indian university or had a credit load closer to 180 ECTS. Some universities may ask for a recognition letter via Uni-Assist or Anabin to confirm eligibility. Always check the program page and email the admissions office directly,  a few universities review Indian degrees on a case-by-case basis.
